It’s that time again: time for Planned Parenthood’s Maggie Awards. The Maggie Awards were founded in 1978 to “recognize exceptional contributions by the media and arts and entertainment industries that enhance the public’s understanding of reproductive rights and health care issues, including contraception, sex education, teen pregnancy, abortion, and international family planning.”

Here’s a question: should Maggie Award recipients really be proud to be honored by an award named after Margaret Sanger? Sanger, the founder of Planned Parenthood, was a racist eugenicist who argued that certain groups of people never should have been born, and suggested that the government put birth control chemicals in the water in areas dominated by minorities.

Is receiving a Maggie Award really much of an honor? Or is it a horror? It says a lot about these people that they would celebrate receiving an award named after a woman who left behind such a despicable legacy.

Planned Parenthood and its defenders — people like Jessica Valenti and the editors at Cosmo — will ignore everything negative about Margaret Sanger. Her abhorrent views will be swept under the rug, because she had one thing going for her, and that’s being the foremost American advocate for abortion and birth control.
